Perugia is a masterpiece. Properties in the old section are dark with few windows. You will roast in the summer. Like Todi, it is a stair steeping workout. Trains do not run to Todi. Terni is one hour to Rome by train. The eastern half of the City was damaged in the war and has numerous apartment blocks.. The western portion is nicer. I would add Foligno and the Medieval Borgo of Bevagna. Gubbio is magical but prices in the old section will be out of reach for most. Umbria has a great bus network. Just make sure your property is a under 1km from a real supermarket. Carrying groceries up a hill town gets annoying.
Giorgio, excellent video. I recently purchased a property in the Perugia Historic Center and am very pleased. My second choice for a property purchase was Terni, just like you.
Hey Giorgio. Really appreciate your videos. Recently purchased my first international property in Phnom Penh after watching your analysis a year ago. I’m interested in the resources you use to gather stats on international markets. Such as links to specific sites. Perhaps you can do a video explaining your research methods and resources.
I LOVE Umbria & am looking to buy property there. However, I prefer one of the smaller hilltop towns or borgos, but Perugia isn't far from where I'm looking when I need to go to a bigger city.
Hello Giorgio! Thanks for the video. Could you please tell more about the climate in Terni and Perugia. Too wet, windy, cold or mild? And you mentioned that the apartment should be chosen carefully (earthquakes). What to put attention to? Year of construction, floor, lifts in the building, etc? Thank you
I am a retired senior lady . I am hoping to move to Italy and connect with my Italian heritage . Somewhere far from tourists .Your videos are a big help with lifestyle choices.
Umbria is beautiful but every year the population has decreased consistently. Italy like with once great superpowers such as Spain, Greece, Venezia, etc are living on past glory and not really moving with the times of the digital / tech era. It's good or bad whatever way you look at it but at the end of the day, th epast is nostalgia, money talks and tech makes life a lot easier for everyone.

Many thanks for your detailed feedback Ken. Wishing others would do the same as it is very helpful for viewers.
Bevagna looks very nice. I’d be interested in knowing what the transportation is like to major cities.

Many thanks Paul. Very pleased for you. Perugia is simply a lovely place.
Congrats! How about earth quakes. When you buy you just hope the house won't be affected or do you have an expert look at the house?
I loved Orvieto. My favorite town in all of Umbria. I have thought about retiring there except for the earthquakes....😞
Orvieto is lovely.

Some good points Al. I still think though these prices are incredibly cheap so definitely worth considering as at least a lifestyle purchase.
The decreasing population is one reason why the prices went down.
The reason for cheap prices once again is demographics and long distance to main transport links and airports.Only a lifestyle purchase obviously.
Agree Frenk.
What about Umbertide?
Italy is not the easiest place to migrate to. I guess they are wanting the mega rich which not happening.
There is a program for very wealthy foreigners where you pay an annual flat tax of 100,000 Euros which is actually quite good.
I lived in Terni for 2 years. Do not go there if you do not speak Italian.
Did you try to learn Italian?
The people are not friendly in Umbria.
Never heard this before.
